Answer and explanation:
Odysseus is the main character in Homer's epic poem "The Odyssey", which narrates his journey back home after the war in Troy. At a certain point, Odysseus and his men end up sailing to the land of the Cyclopes, a race of one-eyed giants. The Cyclopes are quite uncivilized and not the brightest creatures on earth. One Cyclops, Polyphemus, immediately kills two of Odysseus' men upon their arrival. When Polyphemus asks Odysseus where his ship is, he replies that it was shipwrecked, in other words, destroyed and sunk, off the coast. Odysseus is lying because he is afraid Polyphemus will indeed destroy his ship. To prevent him from doing so and to be able to escape when the time comes, he tells the Cyclops there was a shipwreck.

The community deals withh people who are 'different' by isolating them or spreading rumors about them or slandering them.
Explanation:
'Thier Eyes Were Watching God' is a novel written by Zora Neale Hurston. The novel is centered on the protagonist, Janie Crawford and her quest of self-discovery.
In Janie's world, much adherence is given to the received tradition as this allowed people to define themselves as a part of a community or a group. The received tradition also gives them a sense of belonging to a group or community and also keeps them away from being resented by their peers.
In Janie's society, Blacks did not have traditions of their own but the traditions sanctioned by the white people. In the novel, when Joe and Janie arrived at Eatonville, it had no traditions as the town was just sprouting, but it's traditions were established on white traditions, to which Janie did not adhered.
The community, in conditions when those who do not adhere to received traditions or who are 'different', deal with them by isolating them or slandering them. When Janie did not adhere to the received tradition of how a widowed wife of mayor should behave, she was turned against by townspeople.
